Default Most valuable hunting tool?

I was just curious to see what everybody thought was "your one most important hunting tool"? There are a lot out there.. I would have to say mine would be a good set of optics! Hands down. Where I hunt in Idaho they are PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!! So let's hear it....

I hunt thick woods so not much to set the binocs on so I would have to say my pocket knife. I use the small one I carry in my pocket all the time. I helps time pass by. Take a soft block of bossel wood with you and you can carve to pass by time. And you never go home with dirty finger nails either!!

I'd say mine is a toss up between my grunt call or my pendulum sight.

Since I'm always looking for new areas to hunt, I have to say that my GPS has been an invaluable tool. If I have a good Idea where I'm going, I can almost scout an area from my computer and download interesting waypoints to check out when I get there. Also, when I get to a new spot, my truck gets marked, so do significant trails, sign, good treestand sites, etc. My new favorite toy is my thermacell tho, I'm loving that thing.

First, I would say my brain. After that, since I hunt alot of public ground, I would say a GPS and a good topo map.
